Bridging Finance for Your Deposit While Your Property Sells

Secure the deposit on your next purchase without waiting for your sale to settle

You've found the next property, but the deposit is tied up in equity you can't yet access, your current place hasn't sold, or the money's still weeks away. Flexy releases the equity you already hold against your existing property to cover the deposit, so you don't lose the purchase waiting on a settlement date you don't control.

 How Flexy helps

We release the equity you hold in a property you already own, whether that's the one you're selling or another property entirely, to fund the deposit on your next purchase. Your existing bank mortgage stays exactly where it is.

Because this is specifically for the deposit rather than the full purchase price, your loan amount is smaller and your exit is usually the clearest part of the application: the property you're already selling, or plan to sell, to repay it.

Buyers signing a sale and purchase agreement for their next property

Why it worked: The deposit secured while the sale was still on the market

The situation

A property owner had found their next purchase and needed the deposit, but their existing property was still listed for sale and hadn't settled.

What we did

We released $93,500 in equity against the property, secured behind the existing bank mortgage, to fund the deposit on the new purchase.

The outcome

The loan was repaid in full once the existing property sold, exactly as planned.

Why it worked: An auction deposit funded from equity across the portfolio

The situation

An experienced property investor found a larger property at auction and needed to fund the deposit quickly to meet the unconditional auction terms.

What we did

We released $84,000 in equity against the investor's existing rental properties, secured behind their existing bank mortgages, so the auction deposit could be paid on time.

The outcome

The loan was repaid once other properties in the portfolio were sold down, as planned from the outset.

Frequently asked questions

Can I get finance for just the deposit, not the full purchase price?

Yes. Flexy releases equity specifically to cover a deposit, rather than funding the whole purchase. This is usually a smaller amount than a full bridging loan, and it's repaid once your existing property sells.

Do I need to have sold my property first?

No. You can apply while your property is still listed for sale, under contract, or even before it's gone to market, provided you have a clear plan to repay the loan from that sale.

What if my property takes longer to sell than expected?

Talk to us before the term ends, not after. Flexy's short-term loans run for a fixed period, and if your timeline shifts, we'd rather work through the options with you early than after a payment's missed.

Can I use equity from a different property to fund a deposit on a new one?

Yes. The equity doesn't have to come from the property you're selling, it can be released against any property you hold, including an existing rental, as long as there's a clear repayment plan.

Does my bank need to know about this loan?

No, Flexy does not need to notify or seek your bank's permission to proceed. Some mortgages carry conditions on further borrowing against the same property, so it's worth checking your own loan documents.
